Description
LacI transcriptional repressor protein (BBa_K143033) coupled to the double terminator (BBa_B0015.
The LacI does not possess a LVA degradation tag and gas a short (3 amino acid) N-terminal deletion consistent with LacI used in conjunction with B. subtilis.
LacI can be used in conjunction with the lac operon promoter (BBa_K143015), where the LacI will act as a receiver for an IPTG input to result in a Polymerases per second (PoPS) output.
The double terminator is the most commonly used terminator and is a combination of parts BBa_B0010 and BBa_B0012.
The double terminator allows the LacI to be easily incorporated into a closed transcriptional unit.
Notes
LacI was identified from the pDR111 B. subtilis integration vector. The double terminator is the most commonly used registry terminator.
Source
LacI was produced by PCR cloning using Pfu form the B. subtilis integration vector and cloned into a BioBrick with the registry double terminator.
